[Verse 1: Roy Khan]
Merely the sound of your voice
Made me believe that, that you were her
Just like the river disturbs
My inner peace
Once I believed I could find
Just a trace of her beloved soul
Once I believed she was all
Then she smothered my beliefs
[Pre-Chorus: Roy Khan]
One cold winter's night
I may follow her voice to the river
Leave me for now and forever
Leave while you can
[Chorus: Roy Khan & Simone Simons, Roy Khan]
Somewhere in time I will find you and haunt you again
Like the wind sweeps the earth
Somewhere in time when no virtues are left to defend
You've fallen deep
I was a liar in every debate
I rule the forces that fuelled your hate
When the cold in my heart leaves, it comes to an end
Quietly I'll go to sleep
[Verse 2: Roy Khan]
How could that first time recur
When memories linger on and on?
What made me think you were her?
Helena is dead to all, dead to all
Nothing can bring her to life
Don't pretend that I'll be loving you
Once I believed she was gone
I corrupted from within
[Pre-Chorus Roy Khan & Simone Simons]
Leave, leave me for now and forever
Leave while you can
[Chorus: Roy Khan & Simone Simons, Roy Khan]
Somewhere in time I will find you and haunt you again
Like the wind sweeps the earth
Somewhere in time when no virtues are left to defend
You've fallen deep
I was a liar in every debate
I rule the forces that fuelled your hate
When the cold in my heart leaves it comes to an end
Quietly I'll go to sleep
[Bridge: Roy Khan, Simone Simons, Both]
Follow me into the light
Like ice on a lake of tears
I'll take you through
Leave me tonight
I've gone too far to begin all anew (Life fades in)
With someone like you
[Instrumental]
[Chorus: Roy Khan & Simone Simons, Roy Khan]
Somewhere in time I will find you and love you again
Like the wind sweeps the earth
Somewhere in time when no virtues are left to defend
You've fallen deep
I was a liar in every debate
I rule the forces that fuelled your hate
When the cold in my heart leaves it comes to an end
Quietly I'll go to sleep
